Sometimes when I am not finding records it is because my information is not correct. And Death Certificate can help but also give wrong information.<br><br>A WV marriage record for Ellison Prater says he was age 21 and he m. Lucinda Prater age 18 on 8 Dec 1885 in Logan, WV, His father: C. Mounts, Sp's father L. Prater. <br><br>1900 Census for Stafford, Mingo, Wv has: Annie Robinette 23, Levi Robinette 23, Mary Edna Prater 15, Fannie Prater 14. It says Fannie is a niece.<br><br>The marriage record for Fannie Prater + William Mullins 1903. Then in 1911 there is a marriage record for Fannie Prater to William Mounts.<br><br>See what you can find with this information and if you still need help let me know.2016-02-06 19:58:49Znatfreyhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.crime.hatfield-mccoy/571.1/mb.ashxLucille Hatfield Prater about 1860 HELP gone missinghttp://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.crime.hatfield-mccoy/571/mb.ashx
I need help in locating my 2x great grandmother. ( or grandfather for that matter) I'm sure they are out there it's my detective skills that are lacking. LUCILLE HATFIELD PRATER and husband ELLISON PRATER were both born around 1865-1870 timeframe. Pike county, KY or Williamson- Mingo County, WV area. Their daughter Fannie Prater born 1886 Mingo, Williamson, WV. Died 1960 Huntington, WV. Fannie married William Mullins. Their children were my grandmother Effie Mullins who married Aubert Charles, Ethel, Clarence, Herbert, And William. My grandmother Effie Charles lived in Williamson at Lick Creek and had my father Orion Charles 1924-1997. His brothers were Andrew and Hassle Charles and sister Marybelle Charles Ward. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've searched and searched. I'm not sure where else to look For Lucille and Ellison. I've found only one record on Ancestry for them. Its on Fannies death certificate. It's as if they disappeared from thin air!

Not sure if somewhere in my family tree, I'm related to either the Hatfields or McCoys. My boyfriend and I watched the History channel miniseries "Hatfields and McCoys" this past weekend. My late mother's family came from West Virginia and my Dad's family came from Kentucky. Would be curious to try and figure out if there is a connection. The miniseries was very powerful, and kinda scary that people could hate each other that much. Any help much appreciated.

From doing my DNA test on Ancestry.com, I have noticed that some of my distant cousins are related to the Hatfield/McCoy feud. I also noticed in my relatives from the British Isle had other relatives of both the Hatfields and McCoy. Im positive Im related to the McCoys mentioned in the feud but not as a direct descendant. I am still interested to knowing how to link them up in my family tree anyway. Does anyone know how my ancestors Thomas Clark born 1805 or Ellen Flannery 1832-1902 or Mary E McManus 1895 link up to the McCoys? I often see Clark and Flannery in the cousins that have relatives of the McCoys and Hatfields.

Hi, my great great grand father was Thomas Hurt Hatfield born in 1853 in Wayne Co Kentucky. I know he married Mary Elizabeth Mc Gowan and she died around 1890 I think. It has been told that me remarried and had more children. I think he may have married Rosaline and Polly. I cannot find any information on his marriages except to Mary Elizabeth. I cannot find any thing on when he died or where he is buried.

Angela, I was working on my family history when I came across a connection to the Hatfield clan. Believe me, I wasn't looking for it, I was just following the leafs and family history links and verifing them as best as I can. Much to my surpise (it popped up), according to Ancestry.com, thru my mother's side of my family, Wm. A. "Devil Anse" Hatfield is my 6th cousin, 3 times removed. My Great-Grand Uncle moved to this country from Sweden back in the late 1600"s. I followed his line and found that his decendent and a distant cousin of mine,known as Rachel Smith(Smidt)1754-1859 in our family, married Joseph Hatfield (1740-1832) in Virg. As you know Jos. Hatfield is the Grand-father of Wm. Devil Anse Hatfield. I don't trust everything on Ancestry.com so at this point is there somebody in the Hatfield family that I can converse with to verify this connections? Would you be able to help? Can you pass this on to others who may be helpful? Thanks for any assistance, Drew in Indianapolis.

I hope I do not duplicate here as I will attempt a separate post: I am Laura Garrett, born to Garretts who were raised on Garrett Fork in what is modern Logan county near Chapmanville, WV. My Great Great Grandfather was Dyke Garrett who as many know what the circuit riding preacher and spiritual advisor to Anderson Hatfield and Dyke went to his grave honored that he has used the word of the Lord to save "the Devil".<br><br>I have often wondered, because even if the rough terrain and ever changing lines of counties and municipalities, there were more links between the Hatfield and Garrett families between the spiritual counceling, and friendship. While a couple counties over in a rugged, harsh, untamed terrain seems unlikely for a romance or union, more than a couple counties seems nearly impossible. My own grandparents barely met two hollars away.<br><br>If anyway can shed light on the merging, not just of the families, but specifically of Anderson Hatfield's family and the Garretts of the Logan county area (of most interest of me are the kin of Dyke and Sally (Sarah) Garrett.<br><br>Thanks so much for your time and patience!!2013-06-02 01:15:54Zlbgarrett650728http://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.crime.hatfield-mccoy/555/mb.ashxRe: America Hatfieldhttp://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.crime.hatfield-mccoy/173.6.1.1.1.1.1.1.2.1.2.1.1/mb.ashx
There is a Garrett cementary (my family cememtary) out Rock Lick, off Garrett Fork, which is off Corridor G or Rt. 119 South between Charleston and Chapmanville in Logan county. "Uncle Dyke" is buried there along with many other Garretts and in fact the cemetary is named after him. Who I shall write on if I am allowed to make another post without paying, but may summarize here.<br><br>I hope I do not duplicate here as I will attempt a separate post: I am Laura Garrett, born to Garretts who were raised on Garrett Fork in what is modern Logan county near Chapmanville, WV.

I can help you I am in that family and know a lot about the history I was born in Logan WV. and all my family is from there with Hatfield in the recent history2013-05-30 00:48:33ZTreasurepehttp://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.crime.hatfield-mccoy/194.5/mb.ashxRe: Ellison Mountshttp://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.crime.hatfield-mccoy/180.3.1.1/mb.ashx
Ellison is a tricky subject because he was not a natural-born Mounts. He was the illegitimate son of Ellison Hatfield and his first cousin, Harriet Hatfield. He took, or was given, the Mounts name after his mother married Daniel Mounts. In December 1888, Ellison Mounts married Rebecca Justice, who was about 20 years older than he. I have never found a record of their having children in the time he was married until he was hanged in 1890. But then a lot of people research the feud more diligently and thoroughly than I.<br><br>So is there a connection with your family? My guess is probably not, given that he was in fact a Hatfield. But that's just my take on it. I hope this is a little helpful and that someone more knowledgeable than I can help fill in the blanks.2013-05-27 20:32:08Zrobt_danielshttp://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.crime.hatfield-mccoy/180.3.1.1/mb.ashxRe: Ellison Mountshttp://boards.rootsweb.com/topics.crime.hatfield-mccoy/180.3.2/mb.ashx
My great grandfathers name was George Dennis Mounts and he lived in Letcher county ky. Wondering if there is a link here. He had a brother named Ellis or Kellis. He married Victoria Whitaker. Anyway, he never talked about his family, ever. We have found links with Mounce trees. Wondering why the name was changed. Thinking not a census error? We hit a brick wall several times on this line. Any and all help appreciated.
